HOMEWARD BOUND - ADOPTED - now living happily in Lincoln, NE!

Don Q was rescued by our friends at Second Chance Animal Rescue in Puerto Rico. SCAR director Bonnie says this case of neglect is among the worse she has ever seen in over 20 years of rescue. Bacardi and his brother, Bacardi, were so severely filthy and matted that it was almost impossible to recognize them as dogs. After days of careful and constant grooming, Don Q emerged looking like a Maltese. This little guy has been through so much. It is heartbreaking to know how long he must have suffered and what great pain he must have been in. Don Q is the sweetest thing. He is still a bit timid but he wants to be loved and he welcomes cuddles. He loves the company of the other small dogs and being around them gives him confidence. Holding him is like holding a cloud--he is soft and fluffy and just adorable. Don Q will cherish a home that he can call his own.
